Bonding with Your Baby…
The concept of parent-child bonding, once a precise academic theory, has evolved into one of the general application to the parent-child relationship. The theory concern itself with ensuring that a new mother does not reject his offspring. How is this to achieve? Well, it is asserted that the first minute or hours after birth constitute a sensitive period during which a mother should have close physical contact either her new born. This theory mean that a mother would instinctively be drawn closer to her child in the future if bonding take places soon after birth. This supposedly gives an advance to the child and will help him or reach optimal potential. If parent-hood were that easy. While maternal-infant bonding is an interesting psychological idea, research has not substantiated in human being the cause and effect relationship this theory speaks of. There is nothing wrong with a newborn cuddling with his or her mother right after birth or having a close time together with his or her new family. If it’s possible I encourage you to do that. Take time to acknowledge the wonderful creation of a new life. Building a healthy parent-child relationship doesn’t take place in a moment of time; it’s a long-term process. Your baby will not be permanently impaired if there’s a lack of physical contact with mom right after birth.
